Hi Bill, X150 pre-dates all of the LR electrical architectures I know. As I understand it, the X150 would have been developed by Jaguar very much under the ownership of Ford (Jaguar was bought by Ford in ’89, moved to PAG in ’99 (Land Rover joined in ’00), and JLR formed in ’07. The original XK launched in 2005, but would have been project planned during 2000/2001 before Land Rover entered PAG. In the early days of PAG (and some would say even today), Jaguar and Land Rover would have been kept very separate. So while I largely write about Land Rover in the JLR era, you pretty much have a Jaguar with origins in the FORD era. I don’t really have knowledge of pre-X250 cars, but I suspect we would need to look at other 2000 Ford-era cars to find out if other vehicles send CCF on 0x400 and 0x407. Maybe X200? or perhaps X400 and the CD132 platform?
You probably can use the CITM to map between the X152 0X407 and the X250 0X401, but I doubt there would be a direct correlation. It could take years to map out the FORD CCF structure!

Hope that helps

Oh, wow, that is incredibly generous. Thank you Bill, that means a lot to me!

M, you have a gift for communication, instruction.

First off, apologies, the VIN is in Blk2 and has the address 0x401 (not 400 like I mentioned of FL2 forum)

Generally, the model year seems to have little or no impact on the FL2, certainly not on the multimedia components. The brand and vehicle type have a much greater impact. The model year is used by the SDD tool to identify the correct software that should be used by certain vehicles. It is quite common for hardware change to be introduced at model years which need specific software, so the CCF model year is one way to identify these. Personally, it’s not something I would change and then use SDD to update software as it will create chaos.

I’ll reply to your email now
